T6SS-mediated competition by
Article in mSystems, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Seeds harbor diverse microbial communities important for plant growth and health. During germination, seed exudation triggers intense microbial competition, shaping the communities transmitted to seedlings. This study explores the role of the bacterial type VI secretion system (T6SS)-mediated interference competition in seed microbiota transmission to seedlings. The analysis of T6SS distribution within 180 genome sequences of seed-borne bacterial strains enabled the construction of synthetic communities (SynCom) with different levels of phylogenetic diversity and T6SS richness. These SynComs were inoculated with IMPORTANCE: The high prevalence of the type VI secretion system (T6SS) in seed-borne bacteria supports the importance of T6SS-mediated competition for seed microbiota assembly.
